Dear Shareholder:

     We have good news to present in this Annual Report for New England Money
Market Funds, which includes your Portfolio Manager's commentary and complete
financial information.

Market Overview

     Investors who stayed the course in 1995 were amply rewarded. Major U.S.
stock market indices soared to record highs and the bond market staged a
spectacular comeback from its 1994 lows. Fueling the rally was clear evidence
that the economy had begun to slow down as a result of the interest rate hikes
engineered by the Federal Reserve Board to keep inflation in check. Indeed, with
declining housing starts and rising unemployment numbers reported in the first
half of 1995, expectations grew that the Fed's next move would be downward, to
prevent the slowing economy from slipping into recession.

     The bond market surged at the prospect of lower rates, and the stock market
followed suit, with the Standard & Poor's 500(R) Index gaining 20.14% during
the first half of the year. The large, blue-chip companies led the way, in part
because a weak U.S. dollar gave them a competitive advantage overseas and
contributed to surprisingly healthy earnings reports. Finally, on July 6, just
after this reporting period ended, the Fed lowered a key short-term rate by
0.25%, a relatively modest move, but a significant psychological change in
direction.

uncertainty, your adviser can help you avoid making costly mistakes, such as

term market events, buying and selling on the basis of this week's headlines, or
chasing the latest "hot" investment. Such behavior can derail an otherwise
prudent investment program. But investors who work with a financial adviser
receive guidance throughout the market's ups and downs. Your adviser will help
you place short-term market swings in their proper perspective and keep you
focused on your long-term investment program.

NEW ENGLAND MONEY MARKET FUNDS
1995 PERFORMANCE REVIEW

From February 1994 through February 1995, the Federal Reserve Board raised 
short-term rates seven times in an effort to slow down a rapidly growing economy
and ward off potential inflationary pressures. Throughout 1994 and into 1995,
yields on New England Money Market Funds rose in response to the Fed's actions.
Indeed, yields reached their highest level in recent years. However, during the
first six months of the year evidence accumulated that the economy had slowed
dramatically in response to the Fed's monetary policy. The markets began to
anticipate that the Fed would be forced to reduce rates to prevent the economy
from slipping into recession. Then, on July 6 (just after the end of this
reporting period), the Fed reversed direction and lowered short-term rates by a
modest 0.25%, signaling a possible change in interest rate policy.

Shareholders in New England Cash Management Trust enjoyed high rates throughout
the first half of the year as the effects of the Fed's interest rate hikes
worked their way through the system. At June 30, 1995, the 7-day yield for the
Money Market Series stood at 5.47% (compared to 5.02% on December 31, 1994),
while the 7-day yield for the U.S. Government Series was 5.72%

(versus 4.90% on December 31, 1994). The 7-day yields for both Series as of 
June 30 continue to compare favorably with the average money market deposit 
account (MMDA), which was yielding 3.42%. (Source: Wall Street Journal, 
7/6/95)./1/

How We Positioned Your Fund

In a period of rising interest rates, money market fund managers will reduce the
average days to maturity of their Fund's holdings so that assets can be quickly
rolled over into higher-yielding instruments. During periods of declining rates,
the average maturity of the fund will be extended, in order to lock in the
higher yields for as long as possible. At the end of 1994, we believed that
economic growth would perhaps pause for a short while and then continue on its
upward path, leading to continued interest rate hikes by the Fed. Accordingly,
we shortened the average maturity of the Cash Management Trust (which had dipped
as low as 26 days on the Money Market Series at year-end).

In the first few months of 1995, our outlook on the economy began to shift. As
the evidence mounted that the economy was indeed slowing, we thought it less
likely that the Fed would continue raising rates and that it might even reverse
trend. Consequently, we lengthened the average maturity to 55 days for the Money
Market Series and to approximately 50 days for the U.S. Government Series. At
mid-year our outlook is generally positive, although concerns remain that lower
interest rates may spur excessive growth in the economy later in the year.


                                                                               2

Outlook for Our Shareholders

We have probably seen the peak of the current interest rate cycle and we think
that yields will stabilize or edge downward from their June 30 levels. Of
course, this scenario could change if economic numbers in the latter part of the
year point toward resurgent inflation; we will be looking for signs of an
economic rebound later in the year that would cause the Fed to keep short rates
at current levels for an extended period of time.

No matter the economic climate, however, New England Cash Management Trust can
form a key part of an investor's portfolio. We manage both funds conservatively,
following strict investment guidelines to seek high current income and
stability./1/ For those investors looking for added credit safety, the U.S.
Government Series offers the security of a portfolio made up solely of
instruments backed by the U.S. Government. The U.S. government guarantee applies
to the underlying securities and not to shares of the Fund.

New England Tax Exempt Money 
Market Trust

Portfolio Manager:  John Maloney,
Back Bay Advisors, L.P.(R)

Following the strategy described above with the Cash Management Trust, we
extended the average maturity of your Fund from around 44 days at year end 1994
to 62 days at June 30, 1995, in anticipation of lower interest rates. Our goal
was to lock in the higher tax-free yields for as long as possible. At mid-year,
the 7-day yield on

<PAGE>
 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
New England Money Market Funds
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


the Tax Exempt Money Market Trust stood at 3.64%, which translates into a
taxable equivalent yield of 6.02% for an investor in the maximum federal tax
bracket of 39.6%. We are pleased to report that your Fund's year to date return
placed it in the top quartile of 128 tax exempt money funds, as reported by
Lipper Analytical Services, a leading mutual fund monitoring service./2/

High Quality

Your Fund maintains a very high credit quality, invest-ing only in top tier
municipal securities. In light of the recent news reports concerning Orange
County, California, we would like to emphasize that your Fund does not and did
not hold any Orange County paper, and the California debt we do own is secured
by Letters of Credit.

Supply/Demand Factors

The tax exempt money market is subject to special pressures resulting from a
unique supply/demand situation. For example, June is the largest supply month
for one-year notes and most tax exempt funds will show a lengthening in their
average maturity during this time of the year. In addition, the short-term
municipal market is highly dependent on the dynamics of the intermediate and
long-term markets. If the longer maturity funds are in a defensive mode, they
move more towards highly liquid, short-term securities, such as those held by
your Fund. This buying activity by the long maturity funds exerts downward
pressure on the yields in the short-term market, which is what we have been
experiencing in 1995.


                                                                               4

Outlook for Our Shareholders

We believe that the current interest rate cycle has peaked and that rates will
most likely stabilize or edge downward from here. Much will depend, of course,
on the pace of economic activity in the latter part of 1995. If the economy
strengthens, then the Fed may be forced to reverse course and increase rates.
However, no matter what the economic climate, shareholders in New England Tax
Exempt Money Market Trust can be confident that their fund is invested in highly
liquid, high-quality instruments, providing current income that is sheltered
from federal income taxes./3/

Glossary for Mutual Fund Investors

Total Return - The change in value of a mutual fund investment over a specific
time period, assuming all earnings are reinvested in additional shares of the
fund. Expressed as a percentage.

Income Distributions - Payments to shareholders resulting from the net interest
or dividend income earned by a fund's portfolio.

Capital Gains Distributions - Payments to shareholders of profits earned from
selling securities in a fund's portfolio. Capital gains distributions are
usually paid once a year.

Yield - The rate at which a fund pays income. Yield calculations for 7-day
periods are standardized among mutual funds, based on a formula developed by the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

Maturity - Refers to the period of time before principal repayment on a bond is
due. A bond fund's "average maturity" refers to the weighted average of the
maturities of all the individual bonds in the portfolio.

Duration - A measure, stated in years, of a bond or bond fund's sensitivity to
interest rates. Duration is a means to directly compare the volatility of
different instruments. As a general rule, for every 1% move in interest rates, a
fund is expected to fluctuate in value as indicated by its duration. For
example, if interest rates fall by 1%, a fund with a duration of 4 years should
rise in value 4%. Conversely, the fund should decline by 4% if interest rates
rise 1%.

Treasuries - Negotiable debt obligations of the U.S. government, secured by its
full faith and credit. The income from treasury securities is exempt from state
and local income taxes, but not from federal income taxes. There are three types
of treasuries: Bills (maturity of 3-12 months), Notes (maturity of 1-10 years)
and Bonds (maturity of 10-30 years).

Municipal Bond - A debt security issued by a state or municipality to finance
public expenditures. Interest payments are exempt from federal taxes and in most
cases from state and local income taxes. The two main types are General
Obligation (GO) Bonds, which are backed by the full faith and credit and taxing
powers of the municipality; and Revenue Bonds, supported by the revenues from a
municipal enterprise, such as airports and toll bridges.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1995
 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. New England Cash Management Trust and New
England Tax Exempt Money Market Trust (the "Trusts") are registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as diversified, open-end investment
companies.
 
NEW ENGLAND CASH MANAGEMENT TRUST--The Trust's Agreement and Declaration of
Trust permits the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of beneficial
interest, no par value, in separate Series, with shares of each Series
representing interests in a separate portfolio of assets. Effective September
13, 1993, each Series began offering two classes of shares, Class A and Class
B, in order to enable investors in either class of the New England Stock or
Bond Funds to invest in money market shares. Class A and B shares are identical
except that Class B shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge
upon redemption if the shares were acquired by exchange of Class B shares of a
stock or bond fund. Each Series is separately managed and has its own
objectives and policies. The Trust is comprised of the Money Market Series and
the U.S. Government Series.
 
NEW ENGLAND TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET TRUST--The Trust's Agreement and
Declaration of Trust permits the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of
beneficial interest, no par value. Effective September 13, 1993, the Trust
began offering two classes of shares, Class A and Class B, in order to enable
investors in either class of the New England Stock or Bond Funds to invest in
money market shares. Class A and B shares are identical except that Class B
shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge upon redemption if
the shares were acquired by exchange of Class B shares of a stock or bond fund.
 
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Trusts in the preparation of the financial statements. The policies are in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for investment
companies.
 
A. SECURITY VALUATION. The Trusts employ the amortized cost method of security
valuation as set forth in Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940
which, in the opinion of the trustees of each Trust, represents the fair value
of the particular security. The amortized cost of a security is determined by
valuing it at original cost and thereafter amortizing any discount or premium
on a straight-line basis.
 
B. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The Trusts, through their custodian, receive delivery
of the underlying securities collateralizing repurchase agreements. It is the
Trust's policy that the market value of the collateral be at least equal to
100% of the repurchase price. Back Bay Advisors, L.P. ("Back Bay Advisors") is
responsible for determining that the value of the collateral is at all times at
least equal to the repurchase price. In connection with transactions in
repurchase agreements, if the seller defaults and the value of the collateral
declines or if the seller enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the
collateral by the Trusts may be delayed or limited.

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--continued
June 30, 1995
 
C. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INVESTMENT INCOME. Security transactions
are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed)
and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. In determining the net
gain or loss on securities sold, the cost of securities is determined on the
identified cost basis.
 
D. WHEN-ISSUED SECURITIES. Delivery and payment for securities purchased on a
when-issued or delayed delivery basis can take place one month or more after
the date of the transaction. The securities so purchased are subject to market
fluctuation during this period. At June 30, 1995, the cost of when issued
purchase commitments for the Tax Exempt Money Market Trust amounted to
$3,520,570.
 
E. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. Each Series of the Cash Management Trust and the Tax
Exempt Money Market Trust intends to meet the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute to
its shareholders all of its taxable and tax exempt income. Accordingly, no
provision for federal income tax has been made.
 
F. DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends are declared daily to shareholders of
record at the time and are paid monthly.
 
G. OTHER. Each of the Trusts invests primarily in a portfolio of money market
instruments maturing in 397 days or less whose ratings are within the two
highest ratings categories of a nationally recognized rating agency or, if not
rated, are believed to be of comparable quality. The ability of the issuers of
the securities held by the Trusts to meet their obligations may be affected by
foreign, economic, political and legal developments in the case of foreign
banks or foreign branches or subsidiaries of U.S. banks, or domestic, economic
developments in a specific industry, state or region.
 
2. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS.
 
For the year ended June 30, 1995:
 
NEW ENGLAND CASH MANAGEMENT TRUST--Purchase and sales or maturities of short-
term obligations, including securities purchased subject to repurchase
agreements, aggregated $5,993,472,617 and $6,075,795,455, respectively, for the
Money Market Series. Purchases and sales or maturities of United States
government obligations, including securities purchased subject to repurchase
agreements, aggregated $8,776,548,418 and $8,778,942,830, respectively, for the
U.S. Government Series.
 
NEW ENGLAND TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET TRUST--Purchases and sales or maturities of
short-term obligations aggregated $225,482,192 and $225,654,330, respectively.

wholly-owned subsidiary of New England Investment Companies, L.P. ("NEIC")
which is a majority owned subsidiary of New England Mutual Life Insurance
Company.
 
NEW ENGLAND CASH MANAGEMENT TRUST--Under the Management agreements, each Series
pays Back Bay Advisors a monthly fee based on the annual percentage rates of
the corresponding levels of that Series' average daily net asset values as set
forth below:
 
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
   ANNUAL
   PERCENTAGE
   RATE          ANNUAL NET ASSET VALUE LEVELS
   ----------   -------------------------------
   <S>          <C>

   .400%        the next $500 million
   .350%        the next $500 million
   .300%        the next $500 million
   .250%        amounts in excess of $2 billion
</TABLE>
 
During the year ended June 30, 1995, the Money Market Series incurred
management fees of $2,796,164 and the U.S. Government Series incurred
management fees of $255,727.
 
NEW ENGLAND TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET TRUST--The management agreement provides
for a fee at the annual rate of 4/10 of 1% on the first $100,000,000 of the
Trust's average daily net assets and 3/10 of 1% on average daily net assets
above this amount. During the year ended June 30, 1995, the Trust incurred
gross management fees of $281,837.
 
Back Bay Advisors has voluntarily agreed, until further notice, to reduce the
management fee and, if necessary, to assume Trust expenses in order to limit
the expenses to 0.5625 of 1% of average net assets per year. As a result of
exceeding the expense limitation, management fees for the year ended June 30,
1995 were reduced by $199,639.
 
B. TRANSFER AGENT FEES. New England Funds is the transfer and shareholder
servicing agent for the Trusts. For the year ended June 30, 1995, the New
England Cash Management Trust and Tax Exempt Money Market Trust paid $2,111,479
and $76,391, respectively, to New England Funds as compensation for its
services in that capacity.
 
4. TRUSTEES FEES AND EXPENSES. The Trusts do not pay any compensation to
officers or trustees who are directors, officers, or employees of Back Bay
Advisors, NEIC, New England Funds or their affiliates, other than registered
investment companies.

A deferred compensation plan is available to members of the boards of trustees.
A trustee's participation in the plan is voluntary. Each participating trustee
will receive an amount equal to the value that such deferred compensation would
have, had it been invested in the relevant series or Trust on the normal
payment date.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of New England Cash Management Trust
and New England Tax Exempt Money Market Trust
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities,
including the schedules of investments, and the related statements of
operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the two
series of the New England Cash Management Trust and New England Tax Exempt
Money Market Trust (formerly TNE Cash Management Trust and the TNE Tax Exempt
Money Market Trust) at June 30, 1995, the results of each of their operations
for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of
the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of
the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements and financial highlights
(hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the
Trusts' management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included
confirmation of securities at June 30, 1995 by correspondence with the
custodian and brokers and the application of alternative auditing procedures
where confirmations from brokers were not received, provide a reasonable basis
for the opinion expressed above.
